Mental Health

Hello, dear friends,

I want to take a moment to acknowledge my recent absence from your inbox. Life has a way of shifting our pace, and I’ve been navigating a season that asked me to slow down, regroup, and honor my own balance—something I often remind you to do, too.

Thank you for your patience and for staying connected even during my quiet moments. This community means so much to me, and I’m grateful for every one of you walking this journey toward serenity and harmony alongside me.

Short, Quick Win Tip
✨ Your 2-Minute Calm Reset

Feeling tense? Try this quick grounding ritual:

1. Breathe in for 4… hold for 4… breathe out for 6.
Repeat three times.

2. Name three things you can see, hear, or feel right now.
(Example: I see sunlight on the wall, I hear a bird outside, I feel the chair beneath me.)

3. Whisper one thing you’re grateful for today.
Let that warmth settle in your chest.

💛 You’ve just given your mind and body a mini reset — in under two minutes.

“Try this today and hit reply to tell me how it felt.”

For Bloggers

For my blogging friends, I'm sure you've already heard this, if not I'm sorry I'm bringing it to you last minute but this week the Ultimate Bundles Genius Bloggers Toolkit is available.

“Blog smarter, not harder (and snag 8 bonuses)”

I used to think “Everyone hates their job. This is just adulting.” But I was wrong.

One night, frustrated and googling “ways to make money online” (probably instead of folding laundry 🙃), I stumbled across a blog post that stopped me in my tracks.

People—real people—were making actual, pay-the-bills money from blogging, social media, podcasting, and YouTube. And they weren’t miserable. They were lit up. Working from home. Setting their own hours. Loving what they did. That tiny discovery cracked something open in me. Desire, Hope and a new goal. How it all started for me I launched my own blog (with a little side YouTube channel). Was it easy? Not even close. The learning curve was like climbing Mount Everest in flip-flops. I worked early mornings, late nights, weekends.Because that one decision—to start a blog—completely changed my life.

I don’t dread Mondays anymore. I don’t feel trapped by someone else’s schedule. I get to choose how I spend my time, and I get paid for doing work I actually enjoy.

And if you’ve ever had that pit-in-your-stomach Sunday night feeling, I want you to know—you don’t have to stay stuck.

That’s why I want to share something that could make your path so much easier than mine was.

✨ Let Me Introduce The Genius Blogger’s Toolkit

This is the 11th year of this bundle, and it just keeps getting better. Inside you’ll find 46 resources—eBooks, courses, workbooks, templates—covering everything from:

  • Writing content that connects

  • Growing your traffic with SEO + social media

  • Building an email list (that actually gets opened)

  • Monetizing with products, affiliates, and sponsored content

  • Legal + tech how-tos so you don’t waste hours (or $$$) figuring it out the hard way

It’s basically an all-in-one blogging library you can keep going back to, whether you’re brand new or ready to scale.

Honestly? I wish I’d had this when I was starting out. It would’ve saved me so much time, stress, and money.


🎁 And the Bonuses?

This year, you’re also getting 8 incredible bonuses (valued at $360+) just for grabbing the Toolkit:
